Chapter Sixty-Two: Their Helplessness (First Update)
Yang Yuan, upon seeing this, hurriedly asked, "Miss Yun, have you thought of something?"
Yun Shuang glanced at him. "There were quite a few people in our village gossiping about Miss Liu. The Liu family had turned down many suitors, and Madam Wu would have Miss Liu dress up carefully every day, sending her to the town to stay there all day..."
"Heavens!"
They had only just learned about Liu Pei'er’s situation. The chubby boy immediately couldn’t help but exclaim, "Isn't this just like—"
Under the gaze of Ye Qiu, Wen Rou, and the others, Luoyang trembled as she took out her phone from her pocket and handed it to her.
Cheng Hu expressed his opinion, partly to align with Wei Zhongjiang, and partly to raise objections about Yun Zao’s appointment as director of the County Government Inspector’s Office.
At this moment, even if they were ordered to charge into battle and die with valor, none would hesitate. In a sense, it is an art possessed by leaders and those in power, and Kong Sheng naturally has such qualities.
Ping Rushui did not find it especially difficult—if she had to go, she would. She only wished to understand the situation, and whether she could support it would have to be reported back.
The henchman who was examining the authenticity of the money quickly zipped up the canvas bag and, facing Bian Tou and the others warily, lifted the bag and walked toward the car.
Ping Yuanchao’s face was full of anger. He had to intervene in this matter, at least to expose it. As for how it would be handled in the end, that was another matter.
Earlier, she had put forth her condition to Xia Tianxue for rescuing Situ Shaogong: she must not disturb her and Situ Shaogong’s final moments alone together.
"Brother Xiao’s physique is actually stronger than ours?!" Yan Lin, standing nearby, was also shocked.
This stern shout startled Ye Pingyu awake. What was he doing just now? Cao Dafu was still in that room, and there were things to do tomorrow. He had gotten himself so excited he’d forgotten the important matters.
Kong Sheng cautiously took two steps closer. The large eagle suddenly opened its eyes, its gaze fierce; its wings poised to strike, and its talons, sharp as blades, flexed in readiness. If Kong Sheng dared make a move, the bird would surely attack him head-on, and if those talons struck, he would be gravely injured, if not killed.
Aside from Ning Mo, there seemed to be no outsiders. Yet Xiao Yang said there was nothing wrong on her end. That meant the problem was highly likely on his side. He racked his brains but could not figure out which step had gone awry, or who had leaked the information.
"Both identities are rejected by the world, and yet, both have fallen upon you." He laughed, a trace of sorrow in his smile, and Han Yancheng’s nose tingled with emotion.
"Wait, what is that?" Li Youhan was not idle either. She searched for useful information with the others, stopping at a spot not close to the altar.
"I am Zhu Youxiao, Emperor of the Great Ming." Zhu Youxiao said, "From now on, I am the principal of the 'Great Ming Official School.' When you see me, unless we are in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, simply address me as Principal and bow. There’s no need for formalities in our conversations."
She then leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Actually, I really want to help you dress, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist eating you up again. Your body isn’t well yet. Let me nurse you back to health, and then I’ll deal with you slowly." With that, she left.
Zhou Ting was now the closest and most precious person to Chen Chumo in this world, not to be offended in the slightest. Li Chenglin’s words had infuriated Chen Chumo to the extreme. If not for his current injuries, Chen Chumo would have kicked Li Chenglin’s balls and thrown him off this thirty-story building.
Now that release had finally arrived, everything was at its end. I could not be happier, so why would I fear? It’s only a pity—I harmed my child. I let Wen Feiyu and my child die. As I thought about this, I frowned in pain, but now it is all too late.
